Better strap his *** in tight this weekend, he's gonna feel like he's riding a rocket ship.

The change in gearing from Indy to Milwaukee has always made for a dramatic difference in acceleration rates but going from the 3 litre slug to a turbo Cosworth might be enough to keep even Blinky's eyes wide open.

On the plus side if he would happen to lift in traffic it wont take four miles to get back up to speed.

I'm hoping that once he gets back in the Champ Car he wipes ANY thoughts of going over to the other side that might have been forced into him during the past month.

When he realizes how superior the Champ Car is, his racing instincts kick in and, help stop his moaning about "Clowns" and such

He's a good driver, and an asset to THIS series ... He's got to decide whether he's going to challenge those talents, or just be another neverwas over in the IRL.

Carl Haas will make that decision.

Carl Haas will make that decision.

Sure he does ... But then so did Rahal ... and Michele Jourdain Jr. begged to differ !... Plus how much does Paul Newman have to do with the Sponsors they have ? Paul Newman says he's not going, so Newman Haas will dissolve along with the Contracts... So unless Bruno has a "Personal Services" contract with Carl Haas Only, then Bruno does have a say... Maybe Newman Cruise, Andretti isn't that far fetched... Pretty Appealing for Sponsors & Drivers ...

We'll see !

I'm saying as long as Haas is in ChampCar, Bruno will be. He has a secure ride that pays.

N/H and Bruno got a paycheck around $296,400 tonight from Lord Tony. The Hulmans handed out a record 10 million + overall. Hope Haas doesn't become infatuated with those numbers. :gomer:

BTW, Buddy got a check for 1.7 million!

Bruno will have to make it past the first lap this year in order to notice a difference in HP.
